Kechara Soup Kitchen Society ("KSK") is a non-profit organisation established in 2008 with a mission to provide food and basic sustenance to the homeless and the needy in Malaysia. We are currently appealing to Malaysians for support to expand our community aid operations to those in need.
In addition to Kuala Lumpur, KSK operates six other centres located in Pahang, Penang, Perak, Johor, and Melaka, supported by a network of dedicated volunteers across the nation. Our mission is to assist those in need, regardless of their race, religion, culture, or background.
In recent years, KSK has strategically expanded its focus to address upstream poverty and reach the most vulnerable segments of society before they fall into complete hardship. This expansion has been realised through our Food Bank and Empowerment programmes, both aimed at providing assistance to those on the brink of poverty.
Over the past 17 years, KSK has grown its efforts in serving the poor, underprivileged, and marginalised communities via three main core programmes:
Through our Food Bank programme, KSK has redistributed over 4,455,395 million kilograms of food to the underprivileged, including residents of PPR flats, orphanages, old folks’ homes, centres for the disabled, and rehabilitation centres.
The Empowerment programme focuses on providing skill training to individuals in need. We have retrained over 317 individuals in basic education and essential skills such as baking and sewing, which has led to income to support their livelihood.
Through the Soup Kitchen programme, KSK has served over 1,544,667 million hot meals to the urban poor, while also providing medical and other welfare assistance to help alleviate their struggles.
